Not what do you WANT them to do. What do you THINK they will do, and why?

I will take a shot at that:

Most of them, except the pure diehards, that would rather lose a senate seat to show their TDS, will gladly pull the lever for Paxton as he is hands down a better pick than the mentally unstable one running as the opposition.

Not only does Paxton reflect the majority of texan views and beliefs, but he is also a R in the R column for national ramifications.

Right. Your theory (and almost everyone else here's theory) is that the 502,000 Cornyn voters are Republicans first and RINOs second, so that Paxton (or whoever else would be the nominee) can bank those 502,000 votes in addition to their own and is certain to win.

You responded to my "argument". I'm not making any argument.

All I have ever said is that the Texas race is an interesting test of YOUR theory, or let's call it the FR Standard Model.

What I believe is that 502,000 Cornyn voters, most of them (and this applies to Murkowski voters, and Collins voters, etc) are RINOs first, that they will vote for a Democrat or not vote before they vote for Paxton or anyone like Paxton.

We will see soon who is right.
